“Dressing sexy” means many different things to many different people. A sheer blouse or form-fitting pair of pants can be good examples of sexy clothes. However, for purposes of this post, “dressing sexy” is all about wearing the eye-popping, head-turning sort of an outfit that one packs for a trip to Las Vegas.

So choosing the right shaper for these heart-racing frocks is of paramount importance. The proper shapewear can take the right dress or gown, from merely form-fitting, to va-va-voom!

You may already know that the torsette is one of the latest styles of shapewear. But did you know that torsette styling is available in a myriad of silhouette variations? Torsettes are made for women who want to wear their own bras with shapewear. They smooth the same places camisoles smooth, but include no material over the bust area. This design solves a problem for women who have large or small breasts, or have difficulty finding properly-fitting shapers with the correct cup size. It also helps women who are top heavy and want to wear all-in-one shapers that give the proper amount of control around the back, tummy, thigh, and midriff areas. In addition to providing these solutions, the torsette allows customers to choose from plunge, push-up, demi, balconette, full-coverage, minimizing, or any other types of bras to ensure coordination with their fashions, moods, or audiences.

The combined use of separate shapewear pieces – made for the upper and lower halves of the body – is just such an excellent Plan B. Separates provide fit flexibility and allow for the creation of a suit of underwear that best fits the body. They also make using the restroom, when wearing shapewear, an easier experience.

So how do you know when you should choose separate shapers over a bodybriefer? Here are three instances it makes wonderful sense: […]
